[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I used to appreciate Harvard for the brand name/prestige factor as well as the unmatched education it offered among first-rate intellectuals in an inspiring setting.  Now I appreciate it just for the brand name.  That is becoming diluted also and eventually I'm predicting that Harvard will no longer be "cool."  It's already happening if you're paying[/b] attention.[/quote]

Interesting. This thread of bashing on Harvard is identical to the "let's bash on UVA" threads, which never make sense and no one supports their gross generalizations with any citations.  Sorry your kid didn't get in or wasn't even a contender, but these threads are dull and obvious for their sour grapes.  [/quote]

It's true.  Same "pile on" mentality of moms being mean for no other reason than their kids weren't contenders (for what it's worth, my DD was never a contender for Harvard or UVA, and I'm a Harvard Alum - it is what it is).  But it's unfortunate that DCUM is used by angry moms who have no other outlet to spew their unhappiness.[/quote]

Funny how it’s only the Harvard alums defending the school. You are living in the past. Harvard is working very hard every day to devalue its brand. [/quote]

Yes what a failure it is not to defend Harvard on a regional Internet forum. It’s totally slipping. [/quote]
